I Know You a Little Too Well

You want to ride
On the flying kites
Blue, red and green
Dance in your heart,
Bring out that brush
Let it run wild
I know you want to;
I know you a little too well

Buried you lay
Under that veil
Impervious
Imperious;
A lone leaf falls
Maybe a mountain too,
You say it don’t move you at all
But I know you a little too well

They come and they go
Enticing you
Solacing you
Raping you;
Tainted remnants
Devour your skin,
You say they can’t change you at all
But I know you a little too well

The waters run free
Fierce and forceful
Like you’ve always desired to be,
Stood at the end of that stream
The apogee of triumph
You had reached
Yet you say you never really did;
But I know you a little too well

A bitch you want to be
Lose your subtlety
Your well concealed purity;
You try to be her
A callous little narcissist,
But you are so fine my dear
Can you not see?
They come and they go,
Love it is you want
But they can never love you
The way I do
For I know you just a little too well
